Led taillights
My granddesign has regular taillights, if I Change them to led is it just a plug and play or did I need to do some thing else thinking of going with Bragman tail lights

Amp usage (or even parasitic loss) is not particularly relevant to tail lights when driving as the alternator simply replaces what you use.
LED lights for interior fixtures in the RV can make a big difference if you have no shorepower and the lights are running off the battery. Say you have 10 lights on each using 1 amp and you have the lights on for 4hrs. That means you have to replace 40 amp-hr in your battery somehow. If you replace those with LED drawing 0.1amp, you only have to replace 4 amp-hr.
If you have 100amp-hr (usable power) battery bank, that means you go from 2.5days between needing a recharge to 25 days between needing a recharge. Of course realistically you probably are running the water pump and some other stuff, so you have to factor that in.
